Default wheels???

Anyone know of any non-land rover wheel that will fit on a Disco II?
I'm looking to put on some winter/snow tires and the cost of an 18 snow is stupidly crazy.
So I guess i will drop down to a 16 inch wheel for a better selection of tires, but people want 3-400 for used Disco II rims. So does anyone know if certian year RR fit a disco? and or does anyone have access to a hollander manual to see if another brand interchanges.
Yes; I know being cheap and owning a LR dont go togther, but neither does spending 1000-1200 for snow sneakers for 3 months a year.

Just buy a set od 16" factory take off wheels, you can find them for around $50 a piece.

that was my plan but they run $75 or more where I am, and if i find them on line for $50.00 i'm back up to 3-400 a set by the time I pay for shipping. Thats why i was wondering if RR or something else will fit, maybe discoII is to specific.

Range Rover P38 wheels will work.

I've found them for as cheap as $25/each locally.

I've also heard rumor that there is an old Camaro steelie that works, but might require a spacer to correct the backspacing.

It is hard to find good steel wheels for $75 so you may need to raise your budget for these.

BMW X5 rims fit, you may need to make the hub hole bigger.

Have you tried your local tire shop for rims? Even a cheap aftermarket rim?

You need a 5-120 PCD and the center hole is 70mm. Barring some crazy offset anything with those dimensions will work. You can also check for 5 - 4.72" which is basically the 120mm equivalent in inches and have heard that 5 - 4.75" will fit as well but I can't confirm it.

Doubt you're going to find anything too much cheaper than used LR though.
